Mecir showed to public eye, I think around 1985.He beat Connors at Philadelphia, where he┤d lose the final to mighty Mac.He also reached the IO final ( lost to Noah) after beating all the swede squad, one after the other.
I think he defeated, at least once, all the big players of the 80┤s, from Jimmy Connors to Ivan Lendl, John mc Enroe,Boris Becker,Stefan Edberg and Mats Wilander.

He also looked like it was the easiest thing in the world.

Boris Becker had his own theory. He said, that Mecir put him to sleep, especially with his sissy serve. I thought that Mecir looked always half asleep, walking and acting very slowly in between points. But, when the point was on, he could glide into his shots and hit very cleanly and deceptively, especially on his backhand. He was the one, who could outplay McEnroe, not only overpower him.

he had elements in his game that everybody glowingly talks about in federer's repertoire. he was called 'the cat' for good reason. he was nimble and quick but oddly always seemed like he was playing in slow motion. effortless strokes as well.
